This fall I decided to get practical. I travel a lot with family all spread out and decided that I really needed something I could wear en route and still wear around when I arrive.

I also needed something transeasonal and something that would require zero ironing.

It’s one thing to live out of a suitcase and another to look like that’s what you do.

So I decided I needed some sort of jacket and skirt combo. I would have said suit but my family is on an all out campaign to delete my matchy matchy tendencies, so just let’s say I decided I needed a skirt I could wear with everything and a jacket that I could wear with jeans if I wanted and out to dinner if I needed to.

Oh and it had to be knit.

This double sided suede was just what I was looking for.
